Do you think if given the chance Mike Wallace would do it differently?

I cant see how this year has improved his free agent worth? He had some of his lowest totals in along time. He might have cost himself enough money that the Steelers can now sign him for what they wanted to pay in the first place. This is not a Wallace bashing thread btw. I just think he handled his situation in a very poor way and cost himself allot of money.

Wallace is going to a team that will utilize his skill set. His game is about pure speed and he will go to a team that will use him in a vertical passing game. The easy money is on the Colts. He knows the system, quality young qb and 43 million dollars of cap room.

From the time I heard he was holding out, I felt that Wallace was not going to have a good year. He didn't wind up getting injured like I thought he would (happens a lot of times to hold outs.) He had a decent year, but not the monster year I still think he's capable of.

I don't think the Steelers went vertical enough with him. I think that's a missed opportunity; although, it did seem that Haley was trying to make him a more complete receiver with a lot of underneath stuff. However, if they stretched the filed more, the could have opened up more underneath stuff for Sanders, Brown and even Heath (who had an awesome year anyway.)
